RHD conversion
Does anyone know any estimate to buy the parts to convert '93 from L to RHD?
And anyone that actually is able to help with the installation in the West Palm Beach, Florida area?

Well if you insist on being legal, of course the answer is no .

But...since this is the new member section and in an effort to help the OP...
The simplest way, and maybe cheapest way I can think of would be to buy a JDM front clip. Transfer all the needed components over to the NADM and sell the engine/transmission, along with any other bits and pieces not needed, to finance it. Hopefully they won't beat up the dash and leave the dash loom and other needed wiring unmolested. I think they cut them right at the hinge pillar, so you'll still probably need to source a RHD center console.

^You might be close to needing to be a vendor for that video to be left posted.
Regardless, I think I'd get the rest of the air duct installed or at least plug the hole. You're also missing a battery cover for it to be "flawless". I'm also thinking that the stock elbow in 93 was painted silver, but not absolutely sure. And in one part of the video it looks like you've installed R model seats instead of the touring leather. In still another part they look like Base model seats. ???
And unless you can point to some recent change in Federal Statutes, I know of no way you can import, title and plate a FD into the U.S. and be in compliance of Federal Statutes. To do otherwise requires not being completely truthful somewhere in the paperwork. Last I knew, since no FD is yet 25 yrs old, even if you have a State title, unless that VIN has 17 characters meeting NHTSA standards the car is contraband and may be seized w/o compensation.

Maybe I'll just sell my car, since I found out we're moving to Japan this summer, I'll just get a legit RHD one there! haha
Thanks for the replies though, good looking car Ryan K. If I would stay in FL longer I would definitely hit you up.
But at least now (I think) I have enough posts to be able to post in the vendor section!
